Abstract

Social isolation during adolescence is associated with anxiety, depres-sion, and memory impairment. Exercise has been reported as a positive effect on brain function, especially hippocampus. The present study ex-amined the effect of swimming exercise on apoptosis, cell proliferation, and serotonin expression in social isolation rats during adolescence stage. Social isolation started at postnatal day 21 and continued for 6 weeks. The rats in the swimming group were forced to swim for 60 min once daily during 6 days per week for 6 consecutive weeks. The rats in the social isolation during adolescence showed anxiety, depression, short-term memory impairment. Social isolation facilitated apoptosis and inhibited cell proliferation and differentiation. Social isolation sup-pressed expression of serotonin, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and tyrosine kinase B. Swimming exercise alleviated anxiety, depression, short-term impairment. Swimming exercise suppressed apoptosis, en-hanced neurogenesis, and increased serotonin expression. In our study, swimming exercise ameliorates mood disorder and memory impairment by enhancing neurogenesis and serotonin expression and inhibiting apoptosis in social isolation.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Brain Injury & Trauma

brain injury after impact to the head is due to both immediate mechanical effects and delayed responses of neural tissues.
